i’m cross posting this in both Ukraine threads.  It is interesting that Turkey gives no fucks what Russia thinks.

And you can bet your bottom dollar that when all the people left Russia in 2022 - a hell of a lot of spooks pretending to be fleeing foes of Putin set up shop in every country who would take them. The answer is to deport every one of the sons of bitches

Historically they've been geopolitical foes, so, not surprising (S-400 purchase aside).

Yet in my time in Turkey I saw tons of Russian tourists. I wonder how much they spend in Turkey. Less now, I’m sure.

Russian tourists are  a plague. They go anywhere cheap and act like dicks. Like Americans in Paris.

Turks want to increase their zone of influence. They smell a weak russia. Fuckers will pounce like a dude overcharging you for double apple at a hookah house.

I was in a very nice hotel in Helsinki once. They had a glass elevator in their quite formal lobby. I’m sitting there having my coffee and pulla, when I see these two dudes dressed only in robes get on and ride all the way down about four floors. Clearly going to the sauna. Nope. They get out and walk up to the hostess stand to be seated for breakfast. The hostess, a firm but fair Finn, was not having it. She told them in no uncertain terms there was no way they were coming into her dining room with just a robe between their Russian bodies and the fine guests of the hotel who weren’t trying to see any of that. The robe boys? Russians of course. I’ve seen this a million times in various ways. The ugly American gets a bad rap, but Russian and Chinese tourists are the worst.

I think the clear solution is for the US to give Ukraine as many weapons as they need to kill ALL of the russians.

That's been the solution for more than a few years.

Russians, Americans, and Israelis are the worst tourists in the world and I don't think anyone else comes particularly close. In no particular order.

Can’t see the sharpie - the photo’s cut off at her midsection.

She's Ukrainian.  There's a fair chance that below where the photo cuts off, she's carrying a fucking combat rifle.

Americans haven’t been the worst tourists in decades.  Both Americans and Brits can be rough if you’re on the budget cruise or near a stag/hen party but the bulk of them are fine especially the farther you get from home. 

Russians, Israelis, Mainland Chinese (Hong Kongers and Taiwanese are fine) and Gulf Arabs are unpleasant, as are middle class Indians/Pakistanis. For sheer unpleasantness, like it’s a competition to be the rudest, it’s likely to be the latter.

Chinese. You have to include the Chinese on that list. 

Aussies, Germans, Japanese and Spanish would top my list of best. 

Thats a really questionable best lest and I was tempted to add Italians but they are loud.

I'm going to assume the Polish friendship was one of the special ones. 

In my experience those folks cherish friendship like no other. You're family whether you like it or not. Also you will be drunk and well fed. Very very drunk.

Talks in Istanbul revealing just how far away Russia is from any serious effort.  The low-level delegation headed by a man with no real clout in Putin’s inner circle demanded that Ukraine withdraw from territories Russia has “annexed” but does not control and threatened to seize two more.  Usual banging on about demilitarizing Ukraine and ensuring the “Kyiv regime” can’t threaten Russia. None of this acceptable to Kyiv in any way. 
 

The admin decided to take the line that this cannot be solved unless Trump and Putin meet.  This gives Putin quite a lot and Trump very little and so it will probably happen.  
 

I don’t expect a lot from Russia as sprint and summer make for a good time for fighting and trying to seize more.  Internally Russia is uninterested in consumer welfare and remains fully committed to reconstitution.

Putin better hope that Ramzan Kadyrov stays alive a few more years.  The second he croaks the other tribal leaders aren’t going to follow his punk sons.    That’s a whole lot of vengeance to be taken, and I’m sure there is at least some support for Russia-Chechnya Boogaloo III - at least since Russia cannot spare troops or tanks for another war and is down to golf carts and Norks.  Prigozhin and Wagner‘s march on Moscow should keep people up at night if Chechnya wakes up in an independent mood.

US Ambassador resigns over Trump’s fealty toward Putin 

In a candid op-ed published today, former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink explained her resignation, citing profound disagreements with the Trump administration’s Ukraine policy.  Brink, a seasoned diplomat with nearly three decades of service under five presidents, expressed that the administration’s approach—pressuring Ukraine, the victim of aggression, rather than confronting Russia, the aggressor—was untenable for her.  She emphasized that such a policy amounted to appeasement, which history has shown leads to further conflict and suffering.

Brink highlighted the atrocities committed by Russia since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, including the deaths of thousands of civilians, the abduction of 20,000 children, and over 150,000 documented war crimes.  She underscored the moral imperative for the United States to support democracies and oppose autocratic aggression, arguing that the U.S.’s response to such conflicts has global implications, potentially emboldening other authoritarian regimes if left unchecked.

Her resignation also followed a controversial Oval Office meeting in February 2025, where President Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, leading to a suspension of military aid to Ukraine.  Brink’s departure reflects the internal tensions within the U.S. diplomatic corps regarding the administration’s stance on the Ukraine conflict  .

Brink’s decision to resign underscores the challenges faced by career diplomats when political leadership diverges from established foreign policy principles.  Her departure signals a significant shift in the U.S.’s approach to international conflicts and raises concerns about the nation’s commitment to supporting democratic allies in the face of authoritarian aggression.

U.S. President Donald Trump took Putin’s bait after encouraging Ukraine to enter into direct talks with Russia. Meanwhile, Russia made a mockery of the talks in Istanbul.
